I just installed Ubuntu MInimal then

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lxde lxdm xserver-xorg
then when I try to go "Monitor Settings" I get
Unable to get monitor infomation
What do I do? I guess I need to install something since I did no-install-recommends?

Seems like lxrandr is not installed but if it is, check that you have all the dependencies:
